You live your life with the motto: safety first.
You prefer to not take any risks at all.
But by never taking a risk, you're chancing something else...
A very boring and predictable life!
BUT...ALIVE! LOL!

I've mellowed in my later years. 😁
Bible in a Year : Song of Songs 6–8; Galatians 4
The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news! Mark 1:15 When our dog Rupert was a puppy, he was so afraid of going outside I’d have to drag him to the park. After getting him there one day, I foolishly let him off his leash. He sprinted home, back to his place of safety.
That experience reminded me of a man I met on a plane, who began apologizing to me as we taxied down the runway. “I’m going to get drunk on this flight,” he said. “It sounds like you don’t want to,” I replied. “I don’t,” he said, “but I always run back to the wine.” He got drunk, and the saddest part was watching his wife embrace him when he got off the plane, smell his breath, then push him away. Drink was his place of safety, but it was no safe place at all.
Jesus began His mission with the words, “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” (Mark 1:15). “Repent” means to reverse direction. The “kingdom of God” is His loving rule over our lives. Instead of running to places that entrap us, or being ruled by fears and addictions, Jesus says we can be ruled by God Himself, who lovingly leads us to new life and freedom.
Today Rupert runs to the park barking with joy. I pray the man on the plane finds that same joy and freedom, leaving behind his false place of safety.
What false place of safety do you run to in times of fear or stress? How will you leave it behind today and place yourself under God’s freeing rule?
Jesus, forgive me for running to anything but You in search of life and happiness. I turn away from those things now, and turn my life over to You. Lead me to real freedom.
Your Risk Taking Level: Medium
What's life without a few risks? You're willing to be daring when the time is right.
You know that there's no reward in life without risk. You just always make sure that you look before you leap.
Hi Teenie!
(((HUGS)))
I was going to take the quiz, but it seemed kind of risky.
Evenin’ ML! *hugs*
I'll bet you were a high risk taking trouble-maker in your youth, just a hunch. 😆😆😆
“Here, hold muh beer...while I take this quiz.”
Thank you!
When it says: “A very boring and predictable life!”
It is accurate!
